Our network of local insurance partners are at the very heart of our success and it’s important that we take the time to recognise their commitment and contribution to the MAXIS network with our member awards.
Our 2021 Americas member awards took place on 15 April, and although we couldn’t gather in person as we would have loved to, it was still great to catch up with everyone virtually. Our members joined us to celebrate their successes and achievements during a challenging year and we were delighted to welcome representatives from across the region.
Those who attended heard introductions and summaries from MAXIS GBN CEO Mattieu Rouot and Regional Director for Americas, Paul Lewis, before participating in a fun-filled quiz. Some of our network partners shared their success stories, too, before the main event – the awards ceremony.
We were delighted to recognise excellence in five key categories.
Award: most innovative member In the highly competitive world of employee benefits, innovation plays a critical role in keeping ahead of evolving market needs. AXA Mexico took the prize in the innovation category this year category for its clear and responsive website that includes impressive COVID-19 information for clients and an automated chat function. The team at AXA Mexico were thrilled to win!
Congratulations to AXA Mexico.
